Despite all the injuries and subtractions and noise they created around Aron Jackson's signing and the extension of coach Janis Speropoulos, Maccabi Tel Aviv managed to maintain concentration on Tuesday and leave Petersburg with 71:82 on Zenit en route to a fourth win in the Euroleague, which keeps it strong in the top tier .

Just before Jackson lands in Israel and joins the team, Tyler Dorsey demonstrated his abilities and showed that his place in the back line rotation should also be guaranteed. The guard, who is still in the Haifa acclimatization phase on Scottie Wilbkin's weak day, led the list with 17 points.

"They strongly attacked the offensive rebound and prevented us from developing pass attacks, it gave them a second chance at a lot of foes and we knew we had to limit them to play to burst out and play our game offensively. We recovered later, ”he said.

Except for Dorsey, the one who received big compliments is Danny Abadia. "Danny made this move his step forward," Maccabi Tel Aviv said. About the young player's ability and talent is not much uncontested, but in the game in Russia he showed toughness and maturity with which he received the compliments. The yellows suffered on the return ball and young loss was there Help with 7 of these, more than any of his teammates.

It was always fun to win games outside, it was It's hard and we did it. It's important for me to do everything that helps the team win. "

Maccabi Tel Aviv will land at noon in Israel and continue directly from the airport to the Hall of Menorah Mivtahim where it will conduct the concluding training for the match tomorrow against Panathinaikos. The group estimates that Tariq Black may be fit to face the Greeks.
